The story of the ancient twelve constellations

Aries constellation

In an ancient and distant country, the king and queen divorced because of their incompatible personalities and married another woman. Unfortunately, the new queen was born jealous and couldn't stand the king's love for a pair of children left by his ex-wife, so an evil plot gradually formed in her mind.

Spring has come, it is the season of sowing and farming. The new queen will send the fried wheat to unsuspecting farmers all over the country. Of course, no matter how watered and fertilized, mature wheat can't germinate. The farmer who was kept in the dark was very confused.

At this time, the new queen spread rumors about wheat, claiming that wheat could not germinate because the country was cursed, and all the cursed people were because of the evil thoughts of the prince and princess, which caused the wrath of heaven and led to the punishment of the gods for the country.

Hearing this, the simple-minded farmer, oh, my God! Oh, come on! Because of the evil prince and princess, the whole country will fall into the abyss of poverty and hunger. What a terrible thing!

Soon, men, women and children all over the country unanimously demanded that the king must execute the prince and princess, so that the country could untie the curse, calm the wrath of heaven, reap the fruits of the people's hard work and restore the country's former stability and prosperity.

Although the king was reluctant, in order to calm the public's anger, he had to reluctantly agree to people's demands and prepare to execute the princess and prince in order to gain the people's trust. The news reached the birth mother of the prince and princess. Of course, she was surprised and scared. She quickly turned to Zeus for help. Zeus certainly knew that the queen had made the ghost, so he promised to help. On the day of execution, a ram with long golden hair suddenly appeared in the sky and rescued the prince and his brother and sister. On the way across the sea, the ram accidentally let his sister fall into the sea and died.

Later, in order to reward this brave but careless ram, Zeus hung it high in the sky, which is today's Aries.

Taurus constellation

One day, Zeus, the god of heaven, wandered in a certain country and suddenly saw that the princess in this country was very beautiful, which made Zeus unconsciously take a fancy to the god. After returning to heaven, he still remembers this beautiful princess.

In the country where the princess belongs, there is a large beautiful pasture where countless cows graze and play. The princess often comes to this pasture to play with these lovely cows.

On a sunny morning, the princess appeared on the pasture as usual. While she was having fun with the cows, she suddenly found a singing cow among the cows. Its singing is very pleasant, like nature, attracting the princess to come to him unconsciously.

The princess fell in love with the cow as soon as she saw it. Because not only his singing is perfect, but also his looks are just as good. Just as the princess slowly leaned against the cow and sang with him, the cow suddenly picked up the princess and flew into the sky.

After a long flight, the cow finally stopped in a beautiful land, and then became a person to express his love to the princess. It turns out that this cow is the incarnation of Zeus. Because I couldn't help thinking about the princess day and night, I decided to confess to her.

The beautiful princess accepted Zeus' love and they returned to heaven to live together. Zeus named this land after the princess Europa to commemorate the land of confession. That land is today's European continent. The mythical story of Taurus is the love story depicted by the first of the twelve constellations, which breaks the common misunderstanding that Taurus lacks romance.

Gemini

Princess Rita gave birth to many lovely children, including two brothers. They are not only very close, but also almost identical in appearance, which makes people think they are twins.

In fact, among the two brothers, the elder brother is the son of Princess Rita and Zeus, and the younger brother is the son of King basta. They are half-brothers. The elder brother is a "god" and has eternal life. The younger brother is an ordinary person.

One day, Greece was attacked by a huge wild boar, and the princes called many warriors to chase the wild boar. When the wild boar was successfully solved, the warriors forged hatred because of their struggle for merit.

In a busy market, warriors who look at each other unpleasantly meet unexpectedly, and of course there is a quarrel. In the quarrel, someone started fighting, so the scene got out of control, and many people were injured or even killed in this fight. Unfortunately, the younger brothers of the two princes also died in this chaos.

My brother, who has been very good with this brother, can't accept the news of his death. He kept crying with his body in his arms, hoping that his brother would come back to life and let them enjoy the happy days of brotherhood together.

So, my brother returned to heaven and asked his father Zeus to save his brother. But Zeus told him that his brother was just an ordinary man and had already died. If he really wants to revive his brother, he must give him the rest of his life.

My affectionate brother, of course, agreed immediately without hesitation. From then on, the two brothers can live happily together again.

Cancer constellation

Sensitive and affectionate cancer is a symbol of motherhood, with her arms around her chest, showing the mother's nature of protecting her children.

However, in another symbolic sense, the baby in the arms represents the helpless and fragile self, and the surrounding arms illustrate the strong self-protection significance of Cancer.

A story in Greek mythology emphasizes the unique aggressiveness of Cancer.

This must start with Heuli, the son of Zeus and mortal life, and Sheila tried to kill him again and again: he was also the greatest hero in Greece and the strongest man in the world. There is nothing he can't do. Even the gods conquered the giant Terran with his help. Of course, He Wuli also made great contributions. One day, he came to the Kingdom of Messini and was about to receive a hero's welcome. But because of Sheila's instructions, the king gave him a difficult problem-it is very difficult to kill hydra living in the swamp, because every time a head is cut off, countless heads will be born immediately.

He Wuli thought of a way-burning the snakehead with fire, thus easily solving eight snakehead. Seeing only one left, Sheila flew into a rage in the sky. "Did you fail again this time?" She is unwilling! So a huge crab was called from the sea to hinder He Wuli. The crab stretched out a pair of powerful crabs to hold He Wuli's feet, but everyone knew that He Wuli was the strongest person in the world! The cancer finally died under his brute force.

Sheila failed again, but she felt sorry for the desperate sacrifice of cancer. In order to appreciate the loyal mission of Cancer, even if it didn't succeed, Sheila put it in the sky and became a Cancer.

Le Signe du Lion

In the face of the challenger, the king's demeanor is straightforward and single-handedly, which is a symbol of Leo. It is said that the origin of Leo is related to He Wuli.

Hurley is the illegitimate son of Zeus and mortals. He was born with unparalleled divine power, so Sheila was jealous. When He Wuli was a baby, he put two giant snakes in the cradle, hoping to kill He Wuli. Unexpectedly, He Wuli killed them with a smile and was regarded as "the greatest hero of mankind" since childhood.

Sheila certainly won't give up killing He Wuli because of one failure. She deliberately drove He Wuli crazy and then waited for his wife. He Wuli was very sorry and sad after waking up, and decided to wash away her sins with asceticism. He came to Messina and asked the king to give him a task. Who knows that the king got instructions from Sheila, so he gave him twelve arduous tasks, which must be completed within twelve days, one of which was to kill a man-eating lion.

This lion usually lives in the forest. He Wuli went into the forest to look for him, but the forest was silent. All the animals, birds, deer and squirrels were eaten by lions. When he was tired, he Wuli began to doze off. Just then, the giant lion came out with his head held high from a cave with two holes. He Wuli opened her eyes and looked, oh, my God! A man-eating lion is five times as big as an ordinary lion, and its body is covered with animal blood, which adds a bit of horror. He Wuli shot him with an arrow first, and then hit him with a wooden stick. It's no use. This giant lion is invulnerable. In the end, He Wuli had to fight hand-to-hand with the lion. The process was very tragic, but in the end he strangled the lion with brute force.

Although the man-eating lion died, Sheila threw the man-eating lion into the air to commemorate his courage in fighting with He Wuli and became a Leo.
